This field is fundamental to virtually all scientific, industrial, and commercial activities, providing the essential data required for understanding, controlling, and improving processes. It involves the selection, design, calibration, and application of instruments and techniques to quantify physical quantities such as length, mass, time, temperature, pressure, and electrical properties.
The scope of mittausalan is broad, ranging from basic metrology, the science of measurement, to sophisticated
Mittaustekniikka plays a vital role in quality control, product development, research and development, and regulatory compliance.
